Could you show some photos of one under construction, please? I am guessing the technique may be adapted to work with HO and OO scales too. In the meantime, I have a few old style containers (in OO) from C=Rail to paint and decorate. One can never have enough containers!

This photo shows the unit as constructed.
Here is one of the containers on my RQTY container flat.
I could probably do these in OO but I would need to make a new press for the ribbing. British or European containers in N gauge would be easy enough, It is pointless doing them in HO as we have a number of manufacturers having them made in China.

I was thinking in terms of trying to make some myself, although the 3D ribbing might be a challenge.
Thanks for posting, though.
